Jos Verstappen has spoken with F1-insider.com after all. This appears to be new information that the moderators of the Formula 1 section on Reddit.com have received. Verstappen has since deleted his tweet following a misunderstanding regarding angry remarks made towards Toto Wolff.

Experienced Ralf Bach

"The tweet where Jos Verstappen replied to a Dutch media outlet was only a misunderstanding. He did talk to a reporter of ours Ralf Bach. Ralf Bach and Jos know each other for years. Jos just never realised that Ralf also works for F1 Insider as this site is relatively new compared to the other outlets Ralf Bach has worked for in his over 40 years as an F1 journalist. We talked to Jos Verstappen about the tweet and what it caused and he agreed to erase the tweet in question," we can read on Reddit.
Jos Verstappen has indeed deleted the tweet in question. Ralf Bach is an experienced F1 journalist who has been around the F1 paddock for 40 years. He worked for Sport Bild, Auto Bild Sport and Sport1 among others. But now he's the chief editor of the relatively new F1-insider.com.

Verstappen angry at Wolff

All commotion arose after Jos Verstappen made some remarks earlier where he would have said that Toto Wolff doesn't need to call in the future. "You don't celebrate your victory with such euphoria if your colleague is still in hospital. And as for Toto Wolff, we've had good contact for years. I think everyone knows why. He didn't contact us yesterday. Now he doesn't have to call either," Jos said at the time.
When Jos saw these statements he immediately explained on Twitter: 'Haven't had a conversation with F1 insider at all.' Because of this tweet, the website came under fire for possible fake news, but it all turns out to be based on a misunderstanding. This tweet has been deleted.

Personally I believe that RBR require a complete change to their attitude over bearance and their management style.
RedBull owner from Austria must must intercede before his management team led by Horner+Marco and Co with their Lawyers set about interfering within the echelons of the F1 /FIA. Horner+Marco+Wheatly+His Father Jos+His Management /Cindecate of 'shared ownership' of his son Max. Throughout his life he has had his father, soon to include RedBull-Horner+Marco. And Wheatly in his face 24x7 constantly pushing Max telling him he IS the best of all 'Current F1 GP Drivers' together instilling this depth of arrogance, aggression, his failure to comply with all the rules as beset by tbe F1 GP sport's FIA, agreed and signed off for the next F1 GP season /Championships.
These ARE the clean with zero reason to shout fowl, and or employ Solicitors to satisfy their own bruised ego's!!
Max knew exactly what his intentions were, he was prepared to do anything and everything to keep ahead and win that F1 GP Race!!
Max expected Lewis to back out of each attempt to pass him, initially Lewis created a clear path to pass Max-Max knew exactly where Lewis was, with Max resorting to weaving, and moving under breaking to ensure there would be no overtakes by fellow F1 Drivers-Max habitually IS breaking the rules re giving other drivers space to pass, Max IS constantly weaving his car primarily to break 'the Tow effect' and at the same time ensuring any opposing team's drivers will never pass. Max constantly moves his car under breaking-and their are many many more rules that Max constantly chooses to ignore. The FIA must now intercede before Hungrey, pointing out to Max what are the clear rules within the F1 GP Governance, then warning Max re the consequences would be IF he continues to ignore what are The Rules!!
